Think if you could accept rectangles instead of single strokes.

In inkscape you cannot get a stroke easily to snap at the edge of another stroke, no matter what point snap selections (Learn them!) you use. I guess you do not like overlaps, a line should end at the edge of another line at joints because the lengths should present physical sizes. Select all and colorize to black when you are ready.Make duplicates, move the pieces to their places and adjust the lengths.Hold Ctrl with the Pen to get exact directions Prepare right width horizontal and vertical lines.Lock the image in Inkscape's Objects panel to prevent accidental moving.They trace, but one must make so much edits afterwards that as well he could redraw the image. The common tracers in Inkscape or Illustrator can not do it. In addition only special CAD drawing style aware tracing programs can properly trace the lines as simple strokes. 1.2 pixels are much as percents due the low resolution.Īutomatic tracing attempts are quite useless. A part of the defects can be caused by Imgur image service, but anti-aliasing has given 1.2 pixels wide blurry zones to the edges which cannot be fixed with adjustments. It's possible the 'attach' function automatically does something similar to what I'm describing.The shown image is blurry and noisy. This might not be strictly necessary - again, I'm not familiar with Cricut - but it's worth keeping in mind if you're not getting the results you want. Of course this makes things not very editable so I keep my original shapes on a hidden layer. You may need to convert everything to a path first. I personally use Illustrator where I accomplish this with the 'Pathfinder' toolset, but apparently in Inkscape you want the Boolean Operations menu. For example, you probably want it to cut out the little crosses before anything else. If you want this thing cut out correctly, you might need to make it all one path/shape - otherwise they might get cut in an arbitrary order and Cricut might do things like cut the outside border before any of the inner shapes. I don't know about Cricut but I do hobby work with a CNC plasma cutter which is basically the same thing but with metal. If you're cutting this out as a stencil or decal, and you want all the little crosses to stay in the places you've put them, you will need to select everything in Cricut Design Space and use 'attach' to keep them all together.
